Maintenance and refinment release

• [#1572] [#1573] Optimized from merging method for many supertypes
• Introduced static mode (via compile time overloads only) for from supertypes. Switch via Style.mergeFromSupertypesDynamically=false. This gives (very) old behavior before dynamic merging was introduced, for some, it is more intuitive than dynamic logic and avoid heap pollution (& ClassCastException) for some rare cases of supertypes imlementing parameterized interfaces with different actual type arguments in a hierarchy.
• [#1576] Fixed Jackson JSON deserialization for optional types (required=false was generated only for Nullable, now - for any non mandatory attribute). Generating Jackson required can be disabled via setJacksonPropertyRequired=false, the difference is if Jackson will issue an error on missing attribute or Immutables' builder will throw an exception for the same.
